 - 2 customer reviews.
Saitek X65F Pro Flight System
Rule the skies with the latest Saitek X series controller – the Pro Flight
X65F Force Sensing Control System. Custom engineered from high grade metal
castings, this is a system that is built to withstand many combat engagements.
The number of controls available will cater for any pilot’s needs, but the true
innovation resides within the stick itself – Force Sensing technology.
Force Sensing?
For the very first time in manufactured simulation controller, the X65F’s stick
does not move; instead, like those found in real modern fighter jets, it
responds to pressure that you exert on the handle, resulting in a fast, accurate
and realistic response that will make you the ace in your squadron. With no
moving parts and a shaft that is made from high grade steel, this provides
incredible reliability and longevity.
Saitek X65F Pro Flight System Features
- Metal construction for the ultimate in realism and durability
- Unique force sensing stick – all input is detected from how hard
you push on the stick, just like in real modern day jet fighters. This
includes a force-sensing twist rudder control
- Features on-the-fly adjustment of the force settings for the stick –
including separate adjustments for each axis of the stick for the ultimate
in stick response configuration.
- Dual throttle for finer control over twin engine jets, or lock the
two throttles together for single engine fighters

3 x 8-way hats
1 x 8-way thumb hat

Pressure vs angle hard to get used to
by James from Peyton CO USA
Pros: Built very well.
Cons: I wish I could convert it to std stick
Review: Does everything it said it would. I just can't get used to "holding pressure required constant" for a precise manuever.

Excellent Product
by A Customer from Los Altos CA USA
Pros: Almost perfect product, very nice construction
Cons: pricey, hat switches can be a weak point for some users.
Review: Unlike some recent Saitek joysticks, there is no deadband problem at all with the X65F. Also, the stiction issue that earlier products had with the thottle has been fixed, so the throttle can now be positioned very precisely and will stay exactly where you set it. To me the thing seems pretty much perfect, with one small exeception: All the hat switches are now 4 position only in terms of how they are mechanically constructed. In some cases they can be used as 8 way switches since the software reports an intermediate virtual switch positon when two physical switches are operated at the same time. A problem can arise because the physical switches don't make and break at exactly the same time, thus resulting in momentary unintentional switch signals occuring. Depending on what you are using the switches for, it may or may not be a problem. I have decided to limit the use to 4-way.
